Actually getting this in

The first football game of the year. Even with all our prep work I think it's safe to say we were overwhelmed. Working both the fry station and the hotbox could get crazy. It's not that the hotbox was that hard. When I had four orders for french fries stack up and then I get asked for three cheeseburgers and a hot dog was when it got tricky. Sometimes I couldn't pay attention to what was running low on the hotbox because of all those fry orders. Separating paper boats from one another is a lot harder than it looks! It's a good thing giving what's asked is so simple a job, even when orders would sometimes overlap and I'd hand out more than was asked. The operation beyond that from my limited viewpoint seemed pretty flawless. As hectic as it got the system itself was sound. It was the pure unexpected numbers of people asking for what we were making after we told them no, we are out of Pepsi, and no, checking again will not help, that got to us. I personally burned through three pairs of plastic gloves grabbing the fries that were dumped into the hotel pans right out of the fryer, and I got off easy. I thought the evening, barring a few popped nerves, was a great success.
